Easy cam & Windows 7

I've installed the Windows 7 RTM on my Y730 and installed the drivers for my camera, but when I try to install the software to use the cam I get a pop-up that states "Lenovo EasyCapture can only be installed in Lenovo computers."

I've installed Veriface with no problems so I was surprised when i got this error message. Any ideas?

Right click the install file and select Properties then select the Compatability Tab Check the box nex to Run this program in compatability mode for: From the pull down select Windows XP (Service Pack 3) then click Apply and OK and try running the install again.

Thank you for the /facepalm to myself...dunno why I didn't try that right away

Thanks again

edit: just used easycapture to record a video of myself in an attempt to break into my own laptop with it. And it worked. The live detection prevented a photo from being used but veriface accepted the video. Just a heads up for anyone using it.

I realize the likelihood of someone getting a video of you that would allow access through your veriface is pretty slim; but I've also been informed that, using the "ripple" effect from photoshop, one could produce an animated gif that would simulate a suitable video. Also, my result and method may be unique, using a video being played on a matte finish laptop screen.

If someone looks enough like you, they'll also pass. My little bro is only 12, and I'm almost 6 years older, but he still got past with his face 5 times out of 5. After that, I just uninstalled veriface.
